On March 20, 2015, Jean, the eighteen-year-old son of the author, Canada's then newly appointed Consul General to Florida, was killed in Miami while attempting to steal marijuana. Near the scene, the author's second son, Marc, aged just 15, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder as an accomplice.This poignant introspective tale of a mother's rebuilding her life after a tragedy, through her unflinching examination of her blind spots and her quest for meaning, delivers, with humility, a message of hope, transformation, and openness to racial and religious differences. It is an eye-opening and important read for parents and those who value social justice.
